for some reason, crontab is not picking up a job here listed. I, for one see nothing wrong w/it as I have been running approx the same basic crontab for well over a year now. I have just put this box on line about a week ago tho soooo...here's the crontab: SHELL=/bin/bash PATH=/sbin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin MAILTO=root HOME=/
# run-parts 01 * * * * root run-parts /etc/cron.hourly 02 4 * * * root run-parts /etc/cron.daily 22 4 * * 0 root run-parts /etc/cron.weekly 42 4 1 * * root run-parts /etc/cron.monthly 05 * * * * /usr/bin/freshclam # 11 0,4,8,12,16,20 * * * root /usr/bu-snap/bu-snap.sh > /dev/null 2>&1
I have another box running bu-snap.sh in the same kinda crontab setup. Only diff. is that box is a 64bit and this 32...both 4.2 sys.
In the other box...bu-snap is logging in var/log/messages as it's supposed to the time it starts and the time it finishes...and the results show working fine. In this latest installed system...I just can't get it to run under this crontab. should run at hr:11 every 4 hrs.

make sure crond is running and set to start on bootup.
service crond status
and
chkconfig --list crond
if there is any kind of problem, where it cannot complete it's job(bu- snap.sh) it does msg me. ...no msgs from it. oh ya...crond is running and /var/log/messages and cron are plum full or crond input. bu-snap.sh writes to ../log/messages when it starts and when it finishes... but in this box, says nothing and, of course, it doesn't even run as I can tell. this sucker has me stumped... and also...lots of other stuff in the logs of chrond running root stuff so it's not a problem of not running root stuff.
thx
